Identification of AMR genes in an assembled bacterial genome
Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global phenomenon with no geographical or species boundaries, which poses an important threat to human, animal and environmental health. It is a complex and growing problem that compromises our ability to treat bacterial infections.
About This Material
This is a Hands-on Tutorial from the GTN which is usable either for individual self-study, or as a teaching material in a classroom.
Questions this will address
- Which resistance genes are on a bacterial genome?
- Where are the genes located on the genome?
Learning Objectives
- Run a series of tool to assess the presence of antimicrobial resistance genes (ARG)
- Get information about ARGs
- Visualize the ARGs and plasmid genes in their genomic context
